Pentax-Leica? What’s that about?
No idea possibly changed his mind about the article due to how big it was becoming when he received additional information about MTF tests etc.

It's great that this is being released before the Tokina Opera

These are the best digital shots, I've ever seen especially the B&W's which I don't normally like

Be careful you don't buy TWO!!!

When the noon of the full frame has passed away, after many years of knives, it is uncompromisingly revealed. It presses the sword of the group and tells the world .... I stand up!

I don't like small screens that's why I never use the laptop

Oddly I used Pocket PC's (at least 6 of them) before they made them trendy by incorporating a phone. Mine only had GPS and ran some good apps. I don't like smart phones either..... Full sized PC only nowdays with an Eye-Fi card

Good to hear that a new version has been made available. I'm sure the lurkers on here will enjoy it.... they did enough moaning in the past about tethering not being possible Keep up the good work.

Pity my PC is in the living room and any photos I take are either in the garden or kitchen. I suppose it would be more use with a laptop. I've got one but never use it

And interesting that the new lenses are being designed for future camera developments, a hint perhaps of yet higher megapixel sensors?
You mean Ricoh are so far in front with production that they have time to bring out lenses for cameras that aren't even pipe dreams yet!

It will be interesting seeing this new lens used for pixel shift. It should out resolve existing sensors because other lenses already do that, but pixel shift seems to find something extra.

The bokeh looks very good as well.

It's a KAF4 mount so it won't work on a K-5 (iiS)

That's the body only. The Kit is £400 cheaper black or silver.

I can't believe they didn't give it an IR release. Makes it unusable to me.
